The girls lost their away conference game to Cuthbertson last Tuesday with a score of 0-1.

Soccer

The girls lost their soccer game 9-0 to Marvin Ridge on Friday. This loss gives them an overall 0-7 season and a 0-5 conference score, according to Maxpreps.

They had a tough game, fighting the wind to keep control of the ball as goalies kicked them into the field and to hear each other and their coach. Assistant coach Kristin Marchese told them to communicate more loudly than normal to be heard over the wind.

Even with their rough game, Marchese encouraged them constantly. “We’re in a really tough conference and Marvin Ridge is one of the hardest teams in the conference,” she said. “The girls have really improved. And honestly, even thought it was a loss I told them not to be disappointed. They’re improving and they’ve got a great work ethic. They’re a great group of girls, and Anson High School is really lucky to have them.”

The girls will play at Forest Hills High School on Thursday at 6 p.m. They will play at home against Piedmont on Friday at 5:30 p.m.
